Frequently Asked Questions
AEG induction hob controls work but one button does not respond — why?
A single unresponsive button on an otherwise working panel suggests a localised touch sensor fault on the glass panel or the underlying touch IC. This usually requires panel replacement.
AEG induction hob activates zones by itself — is the touch panel faulty?
Phantom activations are almost always caused by moisture on the glass surface. Dry the panel thoroughly. If phantom touches persist with a dry panel, the touch controller is failing.
AEG induction hob child lock activated by itself — is that possible?
Yes. Some AEG hobs auto-engage the child lock after a period of inactivity, or after a power interruption. This is a safety feature. Hold the lock button for 3 seconds to release it.
